HALIFAX, NOVA SCOTIA, CANADA AND PORTLAND, OREGON, USA - Leaders in the culinary tourism industry in Nova Scotia have joined with local host Taste of Nova Scotia and the International Culinary Tourism Association to launch the One World, One Table Culinary Tourism World Summit video channel at http://www.youtube.com/user/1World1Table. Interviewees include William Allaway, CEO, Canadian Maple Products; Sean Doucet, Director of Operations, Delta Halifax and Chef by trade; Kristi Wenaus, Director of Sales and Partnerships, Nova Scotia Department of Tourism and Culture; Janice Ruddock, Executive Director, Taste of Nova Scotia; and Christophe Luzeux, Executive Chef, World Trade and Convention Centre.

Nova Scotia's culinary tourism leaders personally invite culinary tourism colleagues to the September 19-21, 2010 conference in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada through a series of videos focused on the theme of the first inaugural world summit, One World, One Table - Using Culinary Tourism for Economic Development. Local business leaders whose interests lie in the culinary tourism vertical speak out in the videos on what culinary tourism means to them, the importance of attendance at the conference and what one should expect of a Halifax, Nova Scotia experience.

"It was not difficult to secure enthusiastic supporters of the World Summit to participate in the videos and take the opportunity to welcome the world to our fabulous city and province," states Janice Ruddock, Executive Director, Taste of Nova Scotia. "Our entire culinary tourism community is thrilled to be hosting this exciting event and looks forward to sharing our success stories and hearing best practices from attendees and presenters over the three day event focused on in-depth learning but with a lot of Nova Scotian fun on the side," she adds.

"We have all the pieces of the puzzle ready to be put together here in Nova Scotia," says Chef Michael Howell, Proprietor and Chef of Tempest World Cuisines in Wolfville, NS. "Sharing best practices and learning from culinary tourism professionals from all over the globe will provide us the tools we need to complete the puzzle and offer an inviting culinary tourism product comparable with international destinations right here in Nova Scotia. The benefits of this event in our own backyard are outstanding."

"Learning from others at the conference through their experiences is key," states Christophe Luzeux, Executive Chef, World Trade and Convention Center. "But we have the opportunity to show the world what Halifax has to offer. We want to share our table with the delegates from all over the world showcasing Nova Scotia products and providing them with a unique local experience."
